The old adage “when one door gets closed, another opens” has proven to be true for Dominic Monaghan. His character Charlie Pace had been killed off on the finale of the serial drama series Lost but he gained another role recently. 20th Century Fox signed him to play the role of Barnell Bohusk, a.k.a. Beak or Blackwing, in the upcoming Wolverine film. He joins an impressive star-studded ensemble that includes Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Liev Schreiber (Sabretooth), Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool), Taylor Kitsch (Gambit), Will.i.am (Kestrel), Danny Huston (William Stryker), and Lynn Collins (Silver Fox). Beak is a human who morphed into a humanoid-bird form. He has a beak, his eyes are bulgy, and his arms are wing-like. He wears a high-tech body suit that allows him to fly, gives him superhuman strength, produces energy blasts and serves as his protective shield. Feeling disgusted and ashamed at his own appearance, he sought solitude. He ran away from his family and went into hiding. Monaghan is famous for his role as Merry in the film adaptation of the Lord of the Rings series. In England , he was well-recognized for his role as Geoffrey Shawcross on the British crime series Hetty Wainthropp Investigates. He also appeared on other shows like This Is Personal: The Hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper and Monsignor Renard. His passion for films started when he was six-years-old, after watching Star Wars. His big screen debut was on the 1997 thriller, Hostile Waters. He has since then appeared on several films including Spivs, The Purifiers and Shooting Livien. Monaghan was also part of a short film entitled An Insomniac’s Dream, where he was cast as Jack. Wolverine is expected to run in theaters on May 2009. This action/fantasy/sci-fi movie is directed by Gavin Hood and is written by David Benioff. Stan Lee co-wrote by focusing on characters.
